Earthbound

John Prophet

Earthbound.
Born.
Raised.
Buried.
From
dust to
dust.
Earthbound
philosophy.
Sprung up
from
below.
All
civilizations
germinated.
All interactions
governed.
All beliefs 
evolved.
Terrarium,
small view.
Limited.
All within
limited
bounds.
Self
impressed
imprisoned
beings.
Kings
of an
anthill,
lost in
eternity.
Floating
in forever.
Big
picture
beyond
scope.
Unaware
of anything
but what’s
discernible.
What five
senses
allow.
Narratives.
Caught
up in
earthly
drama.
Looking
up, only
lights
in the
sky.
Refocused
earthbound.
Insignificant
smudge
in the
void.
Earthly
power
and control.
All that’s
understood.
